Presentations

 

SB20.7       Book A Facility Online Booking Demonstration

HPERM Ref: D20/533072

Beth Britton, Facilities Coordinator, and Cheryl Hunter, Facilities Officer, gave a demonstration of the new online booking system for Council facilities.

The system has been in use since July, following user acceptance testing with four sports clubs. The first round of sports bookings (summer season) have been input by staff. During February and March clubs will be contacted to run through the booking process for the winter season. During the initial two months users will be able to make provisional season bookings, with clashes to be resolved by staff and fields then allocated. There will be some lead time for confirmation of allocations, as there is under the previous manual system.

The system has garnered positive responses. Staff will assist as requested with onsite training and phone support.

The booking procedure is:

·    The user first registers as an individual.

·    The club is registered as an organisation and associated with the individual account. Insurance documents and other supporting information can be uploaded.

·    Once registered, the user can search sports fields by location; size of event; type of event; date​.

·    Block bookings for seasons are made using the Seasonal Booking tab.

·    Users may book casual, regular or seasonal allocation bookings. Hirers can view, amend or cancel their bookings online on any device and at all hours.

Staff will provide screen captures of the system webpages to Sports Board members.

Clubs are advised to wait until their competitions fixtures are finalised before booking so as not to block book out fields they might not ultimately use, to allow public use.

It was acknowledged that Council cannot control for unplanned use of fields, and clubs need to be encouraged to engage with the system and use it to book sports fields. Staff can make contact with users who are not booking fields to clarify the reasons they need to book and step them through the system.

In the case of regular users who may forget to book and find their usual space has been reallocated, staff confirmed the booking staff currently manage this and will continue, following up with clubs who don’t put in applications as expected.

Clr White asked whether the improved tracking of field use the system will enable will be applied to maintenance subsidy levels and funding. Staff advised the maintenance subsidy process is part of an ongoing dialogue with the Management Committees.

Jane Lewis, Interim Director City Lifestyles, explained that the information on usage will be invaluable in planning for new infrastructure and improvements, and will also assist with grant applications where this type of information is needed to support submissions for funding.

 

 

Reports

 

SB20.8       Results of Sporting Workshop Survey

HPERM Ref: D20/294761

Susan Edwards, Manager Community & Recreation, explained the benefits of running the workshops remotely, being inclusive and accessible. The recommendation is to continue the workshops online but retain the provision for face to face participation. 

Survey respondents had requested further workshops and guest speakers, including on grants, working with volunteers, sports safety, and attracting sponsorship. Suggestions are invited.

 

Recommendation (Item to be determined under delegated authority)

That Shoalhaven Sports Board:

1.    Receive the results and comments from the recent Sporting Workshop Survey sent out to all sporting groups for information.

2.    Endorse the practice of remote access (webinars or Teams meetings) for future Sporting Workshops.

3.    Identify potential workshops and guest speakers to attend future Workshops.

SB20.9       Membership - Disadvantaged Sporting Groups Applications and Expiring Community Membership

HPERM Ref: D20/440861

Susan Edwards outlined the Expressions of Interest (EOI) process for representatives from Disadvantaged Sporting Groups. Two applications had been received, one of which is being recommended. The other application had not fully addressed the criteria and was from out of the Shoalhaven area, and it is therefore recommend that a further EOI be called for that position.

Three current members’ terms ae expiring at the end of December 2020. Those members may reapply, but will be required to complete an EOI application form. In the meantime they may continue to attend meetings.

 

Recommendation

That Council:

1.    Readvertise the Expression of Interest (EOI) for Disadvantaged Sporting Groups (Indigenous and Inclusion and or Accessible Sporting Group) for one additional position on the Sports Board.

a.    Appoint Kristina Pejkovic to the Sport Board (Aboriginal Representative)

2.    Note that the following memberships will expire in December 2020 and accordingly call for Expressions of Interest (EOI) and report the EOI outcome to the Board in 2021:

a.    Ms Lisa Kennedy

SB20.10     Shoalhaven Sports Board - Current Projects Update

HPERM Ref: D20/515340

The $180,000 from the Local Roads & Community Infrastructure Fund for the Ulladulla Tennis Complex Floodlight Upgrades is confirmed in the table in the report.

Funding of $8M has been announced for the Shoalhaven Community and Recreation Precinct under the  Bushfire Local Economic Recovery Fund. Council will contribute $7.5M over the next two financial years. The funding is for projects including the four croquet courts, AFL / cricket fields, amenities / facilities and other works at Artie Smith Oval (Southern Section of SCARP). Council is committed to hosting the Koori Knockout and will have to work around that booking. More information will be available for the next meeting, as the confidentiality agreement is still in place. Council’s Get Involved page will also have updates:

(https://getinvolved.shoalhaven.nsw.gov.au/shoalhaven-community-and-recreational-precinct).

Jane Lewis, Interim Director City Lifestyles, advised the project is progressing from the Masterplan to detail design, having been put to full consultation including sporting stakeholders, whose feedback has been incorporated.

Clr White congratulated the staff on their work on these projects.

 

Recommendation (Item to be determined under delegated authority)

That Shoalhaven Sports Board accept the Current Projects Update report for information.

 

RESOLVED (Clr White / Elizabeth Tooley)

General Business

 

Facilities

David Goodman raised the changing demands for sporting and recreational facilities in response to increasing female participation. Staff confirmed they have been engaging with field staff and sporting groups to identify projects, and this information is to be collated into a strategic document. Funding sources will be identified and integrated into Council’s long term financial plan. Council has previously resolved that future facilities be more unisex.

Jane Lewis explained that as part of its organisational review, the asset planner functions for social infrastructure will sit with City Lifestyles.

 

Fees & Charges

Clr Watson sought clarity of whether Council intends to standardise fees & charges for like services. There is concern that section 355 committees will no longer be permitted to set their own fees. Kevin Norwood (Manager Swim Sport & Fitness) advised that Council’s independent Audit Risk & Improvement Committee had recommended, as a result of its audit of Management Committees, that staff undertake a review of fees & charges. Staff have been meeting with committees to discuss the audit findings. The aim is not to standardise the fees, but to collaborate with Management Committees to achieve consistency. Staff are mindful of impact, and there will be a Councillor Briefing to report on these workshops.

 

 

 

There being no further business, the meeting concluded, the time being 6.16pm.
